Main Street Port Clinton has announced that Downtown Improvement Grant applications are available for downtown businesses and building owners. The focus of the Downtown Improvement Grant is to provide financial support to downtown business and property owners to improve their property, positively influence economic growth, and enhance aesthetic appeal.

These grants are made possible because of the success of Main Street’s fundraisers, specifically the Walleye Festival. Since 2013, $95,000 has been awarded to downtown property owners and business owners.

Main Street Port Clinton is striving to promote, preserve, and improve downtown historic Port Clinton as a vibrant center for businesses, entertainment, and cultural activities for residents of the community and visitors to our area.  For more information about the Downtown Improvement Grant, please contact the Main Street Port Clinton office at 419-734-5503 or pick up grant applications at 110 Madison St. Applications must be submitted by March 1.
